During his stint in the Air Force, Cash learned to translate Russian Morse code.

Cash’s advice on living life on the road: “Back in 1957, there was no Extra Crispy. Other than that, it’s the same.”

In 1984, when Cash felt that his record label was ignoring him, he released an intentionally awful album called Chicken in Black, with a title song about Cash’s brain being transplanted into the body of a chicken.

He used to carry around a jar of instant coffee and ladle spoonfuls of it into the coffee he ordered in restaurants.

Cash once stuck a bowie knife into a hotel room’s reproduction of the Mona Lisa that didn’t meet his standards.

After reading the whole list, I wanted to post my favourite Johnny Cash song, Hurt. Even though it is a cover version, I think he owns this one. I love it to pieces.
